We report a phase I/II clinical trial in prostate cancer (PCa) using direct intraprostatic injection of a replication defective adenovirus vector (CTL102) encoding bacterial nitroreductase (NTR) in conjunction with systemic prodrug CB1954. One group of patients with localized PCa scheduled

The present work identifies a new mouse model of inductible acute glomerular injury leading to focal segmental glomerulonephritis. We take advantage of the suicide gene/prodrug nitroreductase/CB1954 combination, in which nitroreductase converts CB1954, a monofunctional alkylating agent, into its toxic form.

The numbers of thymic epithelial cells (TECs) and thymocytes steadily increase during embryogenesis. To examine this dynamic, we generated several TEC-specific transgenic mouse lines, which express fluorescent proteins in the nucleus, the cytosol and in the membranes under the control

Revision surgery for loosened hip prostheses is a heavy burden for elderly patients with comorbidity. As an alternative to surgery we performed a study to stabilize the prosthesis by percutaneous cement injection after removing inflammatory tissue with an intraarticular virus-directed

NRH:quinone oxidoreductase 2 (QR2) is a cytosolic enzyme that catalyzes the reduction of quinones, such as menadione and co-enzymes Q. With the aim of understanding better the mechanisms of action of QR2, we approached this enzyme catalysis via electron paramagnetic
